About this work

The painting shows a group of people in red robes, with one person lying down. The person on the ground has a halo around their head and is wearing a brown robe. There's a large red cross behind the group. The background is dark, with some flowers and leaves around the edges. The painting has a simple, folk-art style. The figures are not very detailed, but they seem to be in a religious setting. The cross and halos suggest a Christian theme. If you like this style, you might want to check out the Museum of Ethnography, where this painting is held.
